What does MLitt mean?

[fifkaa]

Chciałabym zrobić Magistra w Szkocji. Do tej pory spotkałam się ze skrótem
MSc-Master of Science and MA-Master of Art.
Myślę o kierunku 'language teaching' i tu pojawia się moje pytanie.
Na jednej z uczelni kurs ten honorowany jest tytułem MSc a na drugiej MLitt
i za cholerę nie wiem co to 'Litt' oznacza..

Master of Letters, czyli:

The MLitt degree, which is confined to Arts and Social Studies subjects, is a
research degree awarded on the submission of a thesis. It is broadly equivalent
to the MSc by research in science subjects, and, similarly, the examiners of a
thesis must be satisfied that the work done shows competence in investigating
the chosen topic and that the results have been presented in a lucid and
scholarly manner.
